Ibabrak, the point is that the novel the full thing is described. They could at least have hinted about it without showing anything instead of skipping completely. Consider they also cut out an "ecchi talk" bit (let's call it like that) which was very lulzy and completely fine for tv. That would have been amusing too.

Either way, I guess I'm glad that this is starting to actually get some real animation in the action parts.

oh, I see. I'm not reading the novel, not yet at least. My bad (as well as sorry for the double post on the previous page, it just happened )And yeah, the action scenes were great in this episode

cutting out THE F***EN GOOD BITS!!!! seriously, they show her strip and all but they don't even hint that they did ... other than the bed scene ofcourse. the scene where his hand got chopped was pretty epic ruined by the regeneration of itself (they could've had a journey to find an item healing a cut arm but no.

To be honest, despite all these crazy animations, great fight scenes and good story/plot, this is still not the best in the season imo. I find Kokoro Connect much better for some reason, Im hoping however this becomes better enough to overtake Kokoro connect with its additional episodes.

Knew it. But that old bastard definitely did something fishy. They wouldn't have highlighted that red scene if he hadn't. I'm not sure what he did, but he definitely was able to move out of the way. Time freeze? Time speed up? Whatever he did, he got that "look" of "WTF" and then did his thing that let him dodge that move.

Also... DAT ASSHOLE PARALYZER. >:| I was so glad to see him die finally. Knew the second he was joining the party that he'd pull something like that.

Glad to see the romance blossom at last. Better than most anime where they drag it out until episode 26.

Was totally expecting Kirito and Asuna to get attacked on the forest, seeing as they didn't have any weapons with them. It's nice that they actually got some time to relax, at least for the most part.

If memory serves, there were some older looking characters in the forest too. Wonder if they were players or NPCs?

I'll never understand why characters who have faced all sorts of monsters are inexplicably afraid of ghosts, thats actually the second time this week I've seen that kind of thing happen. Granted, this is Asuna we're talking about, she must have been afraid she would lose

Does the bit where Asuna saved those kids continue into the next ep? Because she saved them and then the ep decided to ignore them in favor of Yui... it kinda makes the rescue irrelevant how they immediately ignored it like that. Hope we find out what was going on there...

This whole series feels more like a collection of short stories, not that that's bad, but I wish there was a structured plot. Almost every ep ends up going in a completely different direction than the one before it, although if they're having a second season I guess they can afford to do that. I hope this series actually has a conclusion though, and doesn't just stop with them still stuck in the game.

I keep hoping for more fighting scenes though, far too few of those. Although dere dere Asuna makes up for it.

Yui is the programmer's daughter and the programmer made the world so she would have the fantasy life he wanted her to have that was impossible in the real world. He also captured people so that she would have company. He also made it so that they would be too scared to leave the game and make everything beautiful and comfortable so they would eventually WANT to stay with Yui.

But yeah, kawaii episode . Kirito is NOT the fatherly type, though.

Spoiler :

ehhhhhh, sorry but making a world full of computer nerds and then tossing your daughter into the middle of them (when they are all desperately trying to get out of the world for fear of dying, some of which are killing everyone in their way) and leaving her clueless in the middle of all that doesn't exactly fit lol.
